A book that makes you ponder what dandyism truly is. The Manners of a Sloppy, Unreliable, Worthless Man When I was young, I admired Eiji Okuda. That kind of sloppy man looked cool. As an actor's book, isn't this an outstanding work? Eiji Okuda is one of the few actors whose roles and inner self resonate. Okuda himself talks about that background, but the core of this book is the passage where he lived to become a "sloppy, unreliable man." That is his ideal way of life. Both as an actor and as a person, he has rejected macho and stylish ways of living, and has embraced naturalness. That naturalness being a "sloppy, unreliable man" is a bit... (laughs). The manners of a "sloppy, unreliable man" are written with seriousness, clearly different from the "me books" of the world. It's delicate. In any case, you can read about Eiji Okuda's life, who was very popular with women and immersed himself in his work. His way of speaking is Okuda-esque, a unique rhythm that's hard to tell if it's passionate or detached. You can also feel his pride as an actor, and it's worth reading. Cool.
